Huawei Wang received the 2021 4UT FAIR Data Fund to release a FAIR human movement dataset

Huawei Wang received the 2021 4UT FAIR Data Fund to release a FAIR human movement dataset. Huawei Wang is a Postdoc researcher in the neuromechanical modelling and engineering lab. This funding will support him to make the collected human movement dataset FAIR. The dataset comprises information from six different types of sensors (Optical Motion Capture, Instrumented Treadmill, IMU Suit, Pressure Insoles, Electromyography Sensors, and Video Cameras; all synchronized) recording movement from 12 healthy young adults performing 13 daily activity trials.  They will openly publish the raw and processed data, processing pipeline (software), open hardware, metadata files, and documentation. 


A short term (2 months) Master student research assistant will be hired to help him achieve this goal. Feel free to contact him (h.wang-2@utwente.nl) before December 24th, if you are interested in having this position.
